Casual Friday - Long Demin and Caro Shoes

Last night was Book Club, so I didn't have time to do my blogging. I'm getting caught up today. My dear friend Caro gave me these amazing shoes! She ordered them online and they are huge on her (they're a size 8.5), but they fit me perfectly, so she just gave them to me. What a sweetheart! The long denim skirt is new - I got it last week while we were up visiting the in-laws. My mil insisted on paying for all the stuff I bought - this was a whopping $3, on for half price, so it was $1.50. How will I ever repay her? Ha!

I like the trend of long skirts coming back (I've always been a fan), and this one hit me right in my sweet spot: slim cut, not too low in the waist, not slit too high in the back, cool details. The waistline has no button - it's a ragged finish. I also really like the "cuff" look at the bottom. I'm pretty sure this has never been worn.

It's a little snug at the top, but that's okay - just makes me sit up straight! Wonder Woman!

I love this blouse, which I have not worn enough - just the once here (lots of close-ups of the details on it - it is amazing, check it out).

Oh, this was funny. L bought me flowers yesterday (he's sweet that way), and Inigo spotted the raffia bow while they were lying on the kitchen counter:
